Winter Looks for Boys: Get the Sports Star Look for Boys

Athletic Wear that Goes Beyond the Gym

By Michelle Kouzmine, About.com

Your little athlete just loves hanging out in his track pants and sports logo tees right? Well, good news, he's totally in style this season. The Sport's Star Look is fresh and cool and oh-so-comfy this year. If he's king of the court, ruler of the field or just the star of the his own backyard, your Sport's Star can dress the part and look cool everyday in his favorite sporty wear.

What He'll Need for the Look

Tees

The sporty boy just loves his t-shirts, especially when they announce his love of his favorite sports' team. Boys and t-shirts go together like pb&j, so don't fight it, let him wear his tees proudly.

Boys love shorts, especially the Sport's Star Boy. Choose athletic shorts such as basketball shorts for an extra casual look. When shopping for athletic shorts, look for shorts with a wide enough leg to afford him lots of maneuverability.

What could be more comfy than hanging out in a pair of track pants? Boys love track pants with side stripes and other cool features. Look for athletic pants with convenient ankle zips or side snaps.

Hoodies and Zippies

In Spring, boys love to wear their hoodies in place of a jacket. This season, they are choosing bold appliques and graphic prints on their hoodies and zippies. The most popular pullovers feature logos from name brands such as Nike, etnies, Puma and Adidas, or popular chain stores such as Abercrombie and Fitch and Gap. The Sport's Star might also like a hoody that pledges his allegiance to his school or to his favorite college or professional team.

Athletic Shoes

Obviously, the Sports Star's choice of shoe is a pair of athletic shoes specifically designed for his chosen sport. For casual wear, however, I encourage the sporty boy to branch out and choose a pair of hip, stylish athletic shoes with a lesser known label, and a bit more pizazz.
